Every Time I Talk to Liston
Saturday, February 19, 2005 9:47 AM

Amos “Scrap Iron” Fletcher is a fighter on the decline. Most of his earnings come from work as a sparring partner. So when he loses the biggest fight of his career [in Vegas!], and his boxing license is suspended because of lies, Scrap Iron is left with a choice... walk away in disgrace or figure out a plan to gain back his reputation and career.

Every Time I Talk to Liston, Brian DeVido's first novel is a winner. DeVideo, a former Golden Gloves heavyweight champion, knows the boxing world. More importantly, he's an excellent writer. I hated to see Every Time I Talk to Liston end.

If "Scrap Iron" and crew come back for a rematch, I'll be ringside!

Sin City Website Goes Live
Wednesday, February 16, 2005 6:16 PM

The Sin City website went live today. It's got a lot of cool areas with more to come.

I'd tell you more, but why not just go have a look around?

You never know who you might bump into in Sin City. If you see a guy in a StalloneZone shirt, odds are, it's me.

Is This the Next Pulp Fiction?
Saturday, February 12, 2005 12:21 PM

"Sin City". "Is this the next Pulp Fiction?"

That's the question asked by Entertainment Weekly in their Spring Movie Preview [on stands this week]. I, of course, hope that the answer is a resounding "YES!"

Everything is pointing to a potential break-out and even blockbuster hit for Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller. Every step from Rodriguez's idea to "translate not adapt" Sin City has seemed the exact right move. With potentially the most exciting ensemble cast in any movie this year, and with Rodriguez and [Sin City creator] Frank Miller as co-directors, how can it miss? The trailers and photos released so far say that it won't.

But, and this is a B I G but, will the general movie-going audience get it?

Some, maybe even many, would argue that they won't. Still, "Pulp Fiction" was different and people ate it up. It was just hip enough and the buzz was strong enough that a lot of people were willing to give it a chance.

So, yeah, I'm hoping that "Sin City" is the next "Pulp Fiction."

New "War of the Worlds" Teaser Kicks Butt
Monday, February 7, 2005 8:14 PM

Did you happen to catch the "War of the Worlds" teaser that premiered during the Superbowl last night?

If you missed it , then waste no time and click HERE.

Ok, now that everybody's seen it, what do you think?

I thought it was awesome. Cruise teaming with Spielberg for "War of the Worlds"... you just know it's going to be huge. And Dakota Fanning is one impressive little actress.

Anyone doubt where they'll be on June 29th?

More Sin City Coolness
Sunday, February 6, 2005 12:51 PM

Isn't that just the coolest image?

Amazon has now posted it when you click on THIS LINK to pre-order the Sin City: The Making of the Movie hardcover by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez. I'm looking forward to this movie more than any other coming out in 2005. [And you just know that the book is going to be as cool!]

In addition to the Sin City movie, making of book, and comic reprints, there is also going to be a series of action figures. Here's Marv, the Yellow Bastard, Gail, and Manute. Pictures of the Hartigan, Dwight, and Kevin figures should be coming out soon... oh, and let's not forget that there will probably be a Nancy figure as well.

As we get closer to the movie's release date [April 1st], more Sin City goodies will be announced and previewed right here at the ZONE!
